prison at hard labor for the "crime."

compared with the years that might
follow in case the prisoner were re
leased, and the couple joined in the
bonds of matrimony. Her daughter.

When Mr. Hughes hangs his head
in .shame he perhaps is thinking of
the occasion when President Taft sent
a message to the governor of Arizona
in response to the lattcr's request for
protection against Mexican attacks.
,Said the republican president: "I
must ask you and the local authori
ties, in case the same danger occurs,
to direct the people of Douglas to
rdace themselves where bullets cannot
reach them, and thus avoid cas

method is to call the National Guard

A PREFERENCE THE REASON.

to talk about "foreign policies" in
this campaign.
They . wish to avoid discussion of
domestic issues.
There's a reason! .
One glance at the list of domestic
achievements in behalf of honest busi

the Wilson administration will show
that reason clearlv.
As to foreign issues, they have been
interesting to the average man only
in so far as they threatened us with
war. -

us out of war.
